## Integrity Checking ## Versioning
For security and authenticity, please review the integrity checking instructions. These include the signing keys and methods to verify your installation: libsodium uses a two-tier release system:
- [Integrity Checking Instructions](https://download.libsodium.org/doc/installation#integrity-checking) - **Point releases** (e.g., 1.0.19, 1.0.20, 1.0.21) are tagged when new features are added or significant changes are made.
- **Stable releases** are frequent maintainance updates between point releases. They fix minor issues while remaining fully compatible with their parent point release. No new features, no breaking changes.
If your application depends on a specific point release, stable updates are safe to apply. Security fixes go to the `stable` branch immediately, with a new point release tagged shortly after.
